# Grin - Basic Wallet
|
|
|
|
## Wallet Files
|
|
|
|
A Grin wallet maintains its state in the following files -
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
wallet.seed # *** passphrase protected seed file (keep this private) ***
|
|
wallet.dat # wallet outputs (both spent and unspent)
|
|
wallet.lock # lock file, prevents multiple processes writing to wallet.dat
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
By default Grin will look for these in the current working directory.
|
|
|
|
## Basic Wallet Commands
|
|
|
|
`grin wallet --help` will display usage info about the following.
|
|
|
|
### grin wallet init
|
|
|
|
Before using a wallet a new seed file `wallet.seed` needs to be generated via `grin wallet init` -
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
grin wallet init
|
|
Generating wallet seed file at: ./wallet.seed
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### grin wallet info
|
|
|
|
Some (very) basic information about current wallet outputs can be displayed with `grin wallet info` -
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
grin wallet -p "password" info
|
|
Using wallet seed file at: ./wallet.seed
|
|
Outputs -
|
|
key_id, height, lock_height, status, spendable?, coinbase?, value
|
|
----------------------------------
|
|
96805837571719c692b6, 21, 24, Spent, false, true, 50000000000
|
|
...
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### grin wallet listen
|
|
|
|
Starts a listening wallet server. This is needed for the `grin wallet send -d <destination wallet server>` command to work.
|
|
|
|
### grin wallet send
|
|
|
|
Builds a transaction to send someone some coins. Creates and outputs a transaction.
|
|
- add -d <destination server> to request a destination wallet from the given server address and port, and then push the transaction to the network
|
|
- add -s <strategy> to choose between selection strategies. If you're experimenting, or the destination is not reliable, it is currently recommendable to use the strategy `smallest`
|
|
|
|
### grin wallet receive
|
|
|
|
Replaced by `listen` (see above). The `receive` command might later be recycled to actively accept one or several specific transactions.
|
|
|
|
### grin wallet burn
|
|
|
|
*TESTING ONLY*: Burns the provided amount to a known key. Similar to send but burns an output to allow single-party
|
|
transactions.
